^WhiteKraft  ”  Delivery  Room  Cases 


These  cases  were  installed  in  the  reconstruc¬ 
tion  of  the  original  unit  of  St.  Mary’s  Hospital, 
Grand  Rapids,  Mich.  In  reconstructing  this  unit, 
the  cost  was  very  moderate  as  the  architect  made 
use  of  a  large  amount  of  steel  equipment,  prac¬ 
tically  all  of  which  was  of  standard  design. 

The  “WhiteKraft”  Delivery  Room  Cases, 
here  shown,  are  of  standard  “WhiteKraft” 
design  with  recessed  doors  and  cove  at  the  edge 
of  the  moulding.  The  doors  and  shelves  are  of 
quarter-inch  plate  glass.  A  feature  of  this  de¬ 
sign  is  the  arrangement  of  adjustable  shelf  sup¬ 
ports  at  the  center  of  the  glass  shelves,  giving 
them  support  at  three  points,  center  and  both 
ends. 

There  is  a  distinct  advantage  in  specifying 


standard  cabinets  of  this  design  particularly  in 
the  cost  of  having  them  manufactured.  Dies, 
jigs  and  tools  for  punching  out  openings  are  all 
made  up  and  no  cost  for  special  tools  would  be 
included  in  manufacturing  these  designs.  In 
addition  having  these  tools  available,  shortens 
the  time  necessary  for  fabricating  the  cabinets 
and  allows  for  quick  deliveries,  eliminating  last 
minute  delays  in  completing  construction. 

Note — Blue  prints  showing  all  dimensions  of 
these  cabinets  will  be  sent  on  request,  or  draw¬ 
ings  will  be  made  showing  these  cabinets  in 
other  sizes  to  accommodate  special  requirements.

<,cWhiteKraft”  Built-in  Steel  Utensil  Cabinets 


These  Built-in  “WhiteKraft”  Cabinets  for 
the  storage  of  utensils  are  designed  specially  for 
that  purpose.  The  doors  have  louvre  ventila¬ 
tions  at  top  and  bottom.  The  sections  have  five 
adjustable  shelves. 

The  shelves  are  of  a  special  type.  They  are 
made  from  heavy  meshed  wire  covered  with  pure 
block  tin.  The  wire  is  crimped  and  rolled  onto 
l/4-inch  steel  bars  which  form  a  frame.  The 
wire  has  1  -inch  mesh.  Doors  have  heavy  brass, 
nickel  plated  turn  knobs  with  locking  bar,  lock¬ 
ing  at  top,  bottom  and  center  of  right  hand  door. 
The  left  hand  door  is  retained  by  the  right  hand 
door. 


This  type  of  cabinet  is  particularly  well 
adapted  to  utility  rooms,  but  with  steel  shelves 
substituted  for  the  mesh  shelves  and  with  the 
louvre  ventilations  omitted  from  the  doors  may 
be  used  to  good  advantage  for  general  purposes. 
It  is  recommended  that  cabinets  of  this  kind  be 
finished  on  the  back  and  sides  entering  the 
wall  either  in  red  lead  or  in  a  high  heat 
bond  coat.  Aluminum  bronze  lacquer  is  rec¬ 
ommended  as  being  particularly  satisfactory  for 
the  interior.

"<rWh i teKraft ”  Built-in  Steel  Tray  Cases 


These  cases  were  installed  in  the  reconstruc¬ 
tion  of  the  original  unit  of  St.  Mary’s  Hospital, 
Grand  Rapids,  Mich.  In  reconstructing  this  unit, 
the  cost  was  very  moderate  as  the  architect  made 
use  of  a  large  amount  of  steel  equipment,  prac¬ 
tically  all  of  which  was  of  standard  design. 

There  is  a  distinct  advantage  in  specifying 
standard  cabinets  of  this  design  particularly  in 
the  cost  of  having  them  manufactured.  Dies, 
jigs,  and  tools  for  punching  out  openings  are  all 
made  up  and  no  cost  for  special  tools  would  be 
included  in  manufacturing  these  designs.  In 
addition  having  these  tools  available,  shortens 
the  time  necessary  for  fabricating  the  cabinets 


and  allows  for  quick  deliveries,  eliminating  last 
minute  delays  in  completing  construction. 

The  outstanding  features  of  these  “White- 
Krait”  Built-in  Steel  Tray  Cases  are  the  Monel 
metal  covered  steel  shelves  with  upturned  flange 
at  back  and  sides,  also  the  arrangement  of  the 
architect  for  foot  space  where  the  cabinet  over¬ 
hangs  the  terrazza  base.  Another  feature  which 
recommends  these  cabinets  particularly  is  the 
folding  door  arrangement,  giving  complete  and 
unobstructed  access  to  the  interior.

Note— The  architect  s  drawing  shown  above  was  originally  made  to  scale,  but  in  reducing  it  for  print,  the 
original  scale  does  not  apply.  This  drawing  shows  the  arrangement  of  the  tray  cases  with  reference  to  the  lifts 
from  the  kitchens,  also  the  clever  manner  in  which  the  upper  doors  have  been  hinged  at  the  centers  to  save 
space  and  permit  access  to  the  entire  interior.  The  method  of  recessing  the  tray  shelves  to  allow  for  a  working 
space  is  shown  both  in  the  illustration  and  the  vertical  section  in  the  drawing.  Drawing  of  vertical  section  also 
shows  architect’s  method  for  allowing  foot  space  in  the  terrazza  base,  bringing  the  shelf  section  within  reach.

according  to  the  designs  and  specifications  of 
Albert  Kahn,  Inc.,  Architects  and  Engineers,  De¬ 
troit,  Michigan.  This  is  one  of  the  largest  and  best 
appointed  sterilizing  room  installations  ever  turned 
out  by  the  “WhiteKraft”  Shops.  Dressing  mate¬ 
rials  of  all  kinds,  small  bundles  and  large,  are  well

“WhiteKraft” 


Built-In 
Steel  Cabinet 

Colonial  Model 


This  Colonial  Model 
"WhiteKraft”  Bathroom  Cabi¬ 
net  has  been  designed  to  give 
the  appearance  of  a  beautiful 
Venetian  Mirror  hanging  upon 
the  wall.  No  hinges,  locks  or 
door  pulls  are  visible,  and  the 
cabinet  with  its  shelves,  is  effec¬ 
tually  concealed  behind  it. 

The  mirror  is  hand  cut, 
beveled  at  the  edge  and  is  fast¬ 
ened  firmly  upon  a  steel  door — 
a  method  which  eliminates 
breakage.  The  usual  door  han¬ 
dle  or  pull  is  omitted  in  order 
to  heighten  the  effect  of  con¬ 
cealment  and  the  cabinet  is 
opened  by  a  gentle  pull  on  a 
concealed  catch  at  the  side.  The 
hinges  are  entirely  concealed 
and  the  mirror  appears  as  an 
elegantly  ornamental  Venetian 
Mirror  attached  to  the  wall. 


This  charming  Colonial 
Model  Cabinet  is  not  only  at¬ 
tractive  in  appearance  but  is  also  distinctly  modern 
in  design.  It  is  of  a  type  that  will  harmonize  grace¬ 
fully  with  any  furnishings  or  decoration  schemes. 
Although  low  in  price,  it  is  manifestly  superior  in 


appearance  and  workmanship,  and  will  aid  mate¬ 
rially  in  imparting  an  air  of  elegance,  refinement 
and  style  to  any  home,  hotel,  or  apartment  of  the 
better  class.

Sizes — Wall  opening,  20  inches  high;  15^4  inches  wide;  and  4  inches  deep.  Over  all  dimensions,
